Annabel & her Son
"We only found out about EarBuddies through researching cosmetic ear surgery due to our baby having a prominent ear. Upon researching, we came across the EarBuddies website. We looked up reviews and decided we would give it a go. Our little boy was already 8 months old, therefore through reading the website we were prepared to have the EarBuddies in for at least 4 months before we would notice any change.
Day 1, I was a little anxious about getting out the baby clippers to clip away the hair around our sons ear however it was manageable. We bathed him and followed the instructions given in the kit. A fairly simple process. I was concerned that as soon as the splint was in and the ear taped back he would pull at it, but he didn't notice it in the slightest.
Day 12, due to our son being quite a sweaty baby the tape had lifted therefore it was time to remove and start again. This was quite tricky and we found his head, behind the ear was a little red so we cleaned the area, applied the cream as directed and left it for 4 days before starting again. However, we could already see the difference in the ear from when we had begun using the EarBuddies 2 weeks ago.

Day 17, we reapplied the splint and taped back the ear again. Our son was not bothered by it at all. Obviously, throughout this whole period people were constantly asking us what was wrong with his ear and when we explained what it was and what it was doing, people looked confused or gave a look as though it would never work.
Day 30 came along and it was time to refresh the tape. We removed the plasters and splint to clean the ear and were completely surprised to see how well the EarBuddies had continued to work. Looking back at the before picture and the post 2 weeks picture we were absolutely amazed! We decided from here we were happy with the result so chose to end the EarBuddies treatment there. Our son was only breast fed up until he was 4 weeks old, and he has been formula fed since. We also began weaning at 4 months so he was pretty much fully fledged on solids when we began using the EarBuddies.
I would highly recommend this product. It needs to be marketed more across mothers / mothers-to-be websites, magazines, groups and social media. I wish I had known about EarBuddies when our son was born however our son had the EarBuddy in for less than 30 days in total from 8 months old and we are extremely happy with the outcome. I couldn't rate EarBuddies highly enough! Thank you. I will forever be promoting your amazing product!"
